Aatrox, the Darkin Blade

Model

Blood Well ( Passive )Â

Cooldown: 225

Upon taking fatal damage, Aatrox extracts the current blood in the well and recovers it as Health over 1.5 seconds. When using an ability that costs Health, Aatrox stores 70% of the self-inflicted damage into the Blood Well. The Blood Well has a base of 35% of the max poolÂ and decays 3% of the well a second while out of combat.

New passiveÂ Â now grants 5 (+1 Per Level) bonus Armor and Magic Resistance which doubles in Dragon Form

Twin Bite (Q)

Basic attacks now reduce the cooldown of Twin Bite by 0.5 seconds

Burnout (W)

Basic attacks now extend the duration of Burnout by 1 second, up to 4

Flame Breath (E)

Now deals 80/110/140/170/200 ( +0.6 AP ) magic damage to all enemies it passes through and marks them. Basic attacks against marked targets deal bonus damage equal to 25% of the ability’s damage

Dragon’s Decent (R)

No longer grants bonus Armor and Magic Resist

Now generates 10/15/20 fury per basic attack.

This is basically shuffling Shyvana’s skillset. With her old passive being integrated into her abilities this opens the way for her to be tankier earlier on. Probably the most exciting change is Flame Breath now being AoE. Given that it doesn’t suffer from reduced damage for each target hit this will be an incredible farming/poking tool.
